A favorite of Paul Schrader’s among his films is this stellar adaptation by Pinter of a typically disquieting Ian McKewan novel. An unmarried British couple (Richardson, Everett) wander through the look-alike bridges and waterways of Venice until they are reluctantly taken in by an older, married couple (Walken, Helen Mirren). Walken pulls out all the stops in a psychotic, over-the-top performance in a film which crosses elements of Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? with Don’t Look Now.
